Shopping tip 101
Shopping tip
One of the best ways to stay focused while shopping is to take a
picture with you out of one of your favorite magazines.
If you take an image with you, not only will it help you and a sales
staff to pull together the look you want, but it will also help you
stay focused on what you came to the store for in the first place as
well as save money.
Source your magazines-meaning pull out the information that inspires
you, put it in a binder and recycle the rest. I started doing this when
I was in college and it has been a lot of fun. It also saves time and
space.

Shoes

I love womens shoes. I have no idea why I love them as much as I do. It
is a true obsession.

All the girls in my family seemed to be afflicted with it, thought some
have it more then others.

I thought for the longest it was some weird little oddity that only my
family had.
